It was the same size as DKR in Austin. Now it seats over 100 k. Little by little it was expanded.

Doak Campbell in Tallahassee is a similar story.

Lol. Which other schools add 5-10k seats "every several years"?

Again, my point is NOT that BYU needs to reach 100,000 like these schools

25,000 empty seats is genius!

You aren't even counting concessions.

2 games, 2 non-sellouts - why does the stadium need expanding?

Lower prices should be the BYU way. Tuition is cheap, so why not tickets, too?

Agreed. Time for the church to subsidize football!

I'm no insider, but I think the Church covers tuition for all athletic schollies

Time to subsidize a new stadium to rival Jerry's World

Twin Roots

The next expansion should probably decrease the capacity
